Experiencing constipation and weight gain. This week for 5 days I have not eaten more than 700 calories a day, even used laxatives to clean myself out, and I have not lost one pound. I am really worried. Anyone have any suggestions?

How long have you been on a Aimovig? I’ve been on it for almost 6 months and not had much weight change. I do take a fiber like Metamucil every night.

I have been on Aimovig for 6 mo. Seems like my headaches are more often than before, but less intense. I am actually having to take more aspirin and rizitriptan than before. In the mean time, I have become more constipated and gaining weight. I have decided not to take the next shot! How about you?
